We will further set a few principles to which we'll stick on the way towards the goal. Firstly **we will never force anything** as forcing any idea, whatever it may be, always ends up being [evil](evil.md). To us **ends NEVER justify the means.** We want to increase happiness of life mainly through **increasing its [freedom](freedom.md)** -- and it's important to note we mean REAL freedom, i.e. increasing the number of choices anyone has [de facto](de_facto.md) available at any moment. This must never be confused with so called "pseudofreedom" which just means "law of the jungle".
**Is it possible to achieve ideal society?** We believe so -- an outline of our reasoning is this:
**Is it possible to achieve ideal society?** We believe so -- outline of our reasoning is this:
1. **If all people behave in ideal ways, we can achieve ideal society where everyone is happy, therefore if it's possible, everyone should accept this goal.** It is evident that if people behaved [selflessly](selflessness.md), we could have all the advantages of current society without any disadvantages and inefficiencies, there would be no [money](money.md), violence, crime, prisons, banks, loans, oppression, wars, poverty, consumerism, bureaucracy, people would voluntarily do what's needed and we would live as equals. Those who reject this goal usually do so not because they think it's technically impossible, but because they believe people at large cannot ever behave like this. But if it indeed was possible, then no matter if one wants well being for everyone or just himself and his family, there is no reason to reject this kind of society because everyone would benefit from it.
2. **It is possible for people to behave in near-ideal ways.** There are individuals and even whole communities who manage to get close to the ideal behavior, do selfless things, sacrifice themselves for others, it's just that they are currently in great minority.
